About U-Choice In

U-Choice In is a local restaurant that offers a delightful selection of manapua, jin dui, and other dim sum dishes. The char siu manapua, both steamed and baked, remain a popular choice, with the steamed version being particularly enjoyable. The jin dui come in three flavors - char siu, black bean, and coconut - with the black bean being a customer favorite. The restaurant also serves flaky pastries filled with curry or char siu, which are highly praised. The staff is known for their efficiency and friendliness, especially during busy morning hours when customers are encouraged to know their order in advance. While the restaurant is primarily a takeout establishment, there are outdoor tables available for dining. Customers have described the overall experience as a "best damn dim sum" they’ve had in years, with standout items including the pork hash, which many have come to love, and the pork and shrimp shu mai. Some have noted that the food temperature can be inconsistent, particularly with the pork hash, and that portion sizes have changed over time. Despite this, many still find the flavors to be excellent, with the ginger sauce receiving particular praise. The line can get long during lunch, so timing is important for those on a schedule.
